Please remember to bring your SAF or CF number to apply for credits. If you forgot your license number, you may use the last 4 digits of your social security number. Check the OISC applicator site to confirm your CCH credits. It may take a few weeks to post on your records, and recognize that when your 5-year recertification occurs, your credit balance will return to zero. Questions about your credit balance and certification should be addressed to the OISC.
